Yr 12 Sport & Rec Gym Visits
This term for yr 12 Sport and Rec, our students have been studying a unit about training for fitness. Throughout this term the students have been participating in a range of activities designed to improve their overall health and teach them about the benefits of exercise and a healthy lifestyle.
As part of their assessment for this unit they are going to design and deliver their own fitness session to the rest of the class. To help prepare the students for this assessment we have done a few excursions to various gyms around town to get a real life feel of what a fitness session could look like.
We have visited Hub Total Fitness where we did an RPM class. We also visited Yaralla Fitness Centre where we did a strength and mobility class and, just last week, we visited UBX Boxing & Strength where we learnt about HIIT training and circuit training.
Overall, the students have really been enjoying these sessions and hopefully learning a lot about their overall fitness. I wish them all the best for their upcoming assessment and I hope they see improvements in their own fitness levels after this unit.
